Pros

Family owned with a commitment to community values which gives you pride in your work place. Fellow employees are a pleasure to work with. Match 401k and employee discount for general merchandise

Cons

The corporate value system is starting to leak in (value profit over customer/employee). Give employees unattainable goals. Pretend to give you a raise based on performance each year (everybody gets the same no matter how much better you are). High stress job and not allowed to sit. If you get busy it is expected to pretty much skip your break (they legally can't tell you not to but you "feel" it)

Pros

Direct coworkers were great to work with. I also enjoyed being left to do my work and not babysat by management.

Cons

Management doesn't know what they are doing. Resets and floor plans were regularly not done properly. The store I worked at has a skeleton crew so I never got help (but was expected to stop everything I'm going to go help other departments/areas). Also meaning good luck to any customers needing help, especially when I was the only person working my area of the store, so when I wasn't there, no one was. Management also regularly disappeared into the offices or were on vacation. Also was terminated for reasons outside my control even though I was told they look at the reasons for attendance incidents before termination. Never got to get the FMLA or accommodation to my doctors before being terminated two days after I requested them. Didn't bother asking for a raise either. I did multiple times and got nothing.
